Meeting Owner - Series Deleted from my Calendar, but not Other Calendars

Hello,

I am having issues with one of the meeting invites I own. We host a full-team meeting for ~300 people on my team, and I am the Outlook owner of this meeting. Somehow, this meeting was deleted off my calendar, but not from others' calendars on my team. I got it back from my sent/deleted folders, however, now I cannot edit the invite. There are wrong dates reflected in the series and I need to either update it, or delete the series for my team altogether, but I am not able to.

With 300 on the team, I am not able to just blast out an email and tell them to disregard the other thread - it always results in confusion and frustration with that many people.

Any thoughts?

    I have faced same issue and its a genuine issue, as I can see the same problem is faced by many user. The way I am able to resolve it in two steps:-

    (1) Ask some of the other person in the invite to forward invite back to you

    (2) Using the invite forward by other person, forward it again back to you

    after this meeting invite appears back in the calendar with full series of occurrence.

    Hope this helps others !

    THE SAME HAS HAPPENED WITH ME! I cannot amend anything and everyone else still has the invites. No one else has been informed the meeting was cancelled when it was deleted from my calendar! HUGE PROBLEM!

    I had this problem and was able to get the meeting back by accessing the meeting from someone elses calendar. When you open up the meeting from the other persons calendar, there will be a button that says copy to my calendar. This requires you to have access to the other persons calendar from your own.

    Unfortunately this is still a problem a year and a half out, but this solution worked, you're a life saver Andrew, thank you. The one thing I did differently was that I had the person just send me the ics of the series themselves, still worked fine
